The Heavens: Thousands of Households Starting from Number One in the World

The thin clouds flowed slowly, like a flexible ribbon, dancing with every step of Yang Jian. Yang Jian was dressed in a black robe and silver armor, which shone with a cold luster in the sunlight. He looked calm. The Roaring Sky Dog beside him followed obediently, occasionally tilting his head to look at Yang Jian, his eyes full of satisfaction.

The two of them walked through the crisscrossed, carved and painted corridors, each step made a crisp sound on the white jade. Soon, they arrived at the South Gate of Heaven. As soon as they arrived, the sound of war drums rolled in like thunder, carrying an endless murderous aura.

Yang Jian raised his eyes slightly and looked into the sky above Nantianmen. He saw the colorful clouds rolling and changing, gradually condensing, and slowly emerging an extremely huge floating battleship, exuding pressure.

At the head of the warship stood Guangmu Tianwang, one of the Four Heavenly Kings. His eyes were like an eagle, scanning everything below. In front, the vanguard was the powerful giant spirit, holding a giant axe and looking fierce.

Under Yang Jian's all-seeing eyes, the Nantianmen army dispatched more than ten thousand heavenly soldiers. They were wearing armor, holding sharp blades, and lined up in neat rows, like a torrent of steel, ready to pour down at any time.

“I wonder which monster stronghold the Nan Tianmen army is targeting this time?” Xiao Tian Dog said with curiosity in his eyes, tilting his head.

"It's none of our business!" Yang Jian said in a calm tone.

Today, Yang Jian is going to Mount Hua to visit his third sister whom he has not seen for many years. On the way, he plans to let Roaring Sky Dog continue to follow Chenxiang and attract some hatred from time to time to motivate Chenxiang to continue to grow.

When Yang Jian walked through the South Heaven Gate calmly, many gods and generals cast fearful glances at him. They avoided his gaze and dared not look directly at Yang Jian. After all, as the God of Justice, Yang Jian held the power of killing according to the Heavenly Rules. Over the past few hundred years, he had been ruthless and merciless to those who violated the Heavenly Rules. This made all the ordinary heavenly soldiers and generals terrified, fearing that they would accidentally anger this powerful god.

Suddenly, a deep and respectful voice came from the side of the South Heaven Gate: "Little God greets the God of Justice!"

Yang Jian looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the man was none other than Heavenly King Zhangzhang, one of the most capable generals of Li Jing, the Grand Marshal of Heavenly Court. Yang Jian did not ignore him, but nodded slightly and said casually, "Heavenly King Zhangzhang, you are on duty at the South Heavenly Gate today!"

The Heavenly King Zhangzhang smiled and said respectfully, "Yes, my four brothers take turns guarding the four Heavenly Gates. Today it is my turn to guard the South Heavenly Gate!"

Yang Jian nodded gently and was about to leave when he heard Heavenly King Zhangzhang ask, "Is the God of Justice going to descend to the mortal world?"

"Well, yes! It's been a long time since I last saw my third sister. It's time to go see her!" Yang Jian responded briefly and nodded slightly.

The Heavenly King of Growth said, “So that’s it!”

"Hey, Heavenly King! Which demons are you, the army of Nantianmen, going to encircle and suppress? You actually sent Guangmu Heavenly King and Giant Spirit God, as well as so many heavenly soldiers!" Xiaotian Dog suddenly interrupted and asked.

Although the Four Heavenly Kings' daily battle records were not very outstanding, they were indeed Taiyi Golden Immortals. In the Heavenly Court, there were not many Gods with such cultivation as them. Generally speaking, there was no need to send Gods of the Heavenly King level to encircle and suppress the ordinary demon kings and devils in the lower realm, unless they were the powerful demon kings who dominated one side.

The Heavenly King Zhangzhang smiled and said, "I don't know the details, but it seems to be a place on the border of Jambudvīpa called what? Wan... Mountain?"

Hearing this, Yang Jian paused, his expression slightly tense, but he regained his composure in an instant, as if the emotional fluctuations just now had never occurred. The Roaring Sky Dog beside him asked tentatively: "Is it Wanku Mountain?"

"Oh, yes, yes! It is Wanku Mountain. I didn't expect that you knew Xiaotian Dog! I heard from people from Xuntian Mansion that Wanku Mountain has used unknown magic to cover up the evil spirit. It has been deceiving the inspections of Xuntian Mansion and the eyes of the local land and mountain gods for many years. Now it has gathered thousands of demons!" King Zhangzhang tried hard to recall, and then answered seriously.

"Li Tianwang said that since there were thousands of demons gathered together, the demon king among them must have some skills! That's why we sent Guangmu and Julingshen!" King Zhangzhang added.

Yang Jian's face was calm as water, but he had already begun to ponder secretly in his heart, and a barely perceptible light flashed in his eyes.

……

After leaving the South Heaven Gate, Yang Jian and Xiaotian Dog flew towards the lower world. Along the way, the wind whistled past their ears, and the clouds on both sides retreated quickly like flowing water.

"Master, what should we do? Will the Nantianmen army kill Chenxiang by mistake?" Xiaotian Dog asked worriedly, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

“Let’s go to Wanku Mountain first!” Yang Jian’s expression changed sternly and he changed direction decisively. He and Xiaotian Dog instantly turned into a black cloud and flew towards the direction of Wanku Mountain at a high speed like a black lightning, leaving only a faint afterimage.

……

Although the Heavenly Court has hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals, most of them have not yet reached the level of Heavenly Immortals. And the speed of these Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals flying in the air is far less than one ten-thousandth of that of Golden Immortals. In order to solve the problem of the slow mobilization and deployment of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals when demon wars occur in the Three Realms, the Heavenly Court specially asked the Divine Forging Palace to build floating warships.

This kind of warship can patrol the three realms in a short period of time. In terms of flying speed, it can even be compared with the Golden Immortal, becoming a powerful immortal weapon for the Heavenly Court to conquer the four directions. Two hours later.

Thunder flashed in the sky above Wanku Mountain, and lightning streaked across the sky like silver snakes, followed by deafening thunder. The wind howled like a ferocious beast, and countless trees were blown to the ground, as if they would be uprooted at any time.

Bean-sized raindrops fell densely, splashing high on the ground and dripping onto Chenxiang's shocked and terrified face.

In Chenxiang's eyes, this scene was too familiar, exactly the same as the scene when the Meishan brothers led the heavenly soldiers and generals to descend some time ago. The majestic and murderous atmosphere made his heart involuntarily tighten.

"Have we been discovered?" Chen Xiang murmured, his voice full of regret and self-blame. He was filled with regret, he really shouldn't have stayed here. Now that the Heavenly Court had sent so many heavenly soldiers and generals, they must have noticed the traces of him, a human god who was not tolerated by heaven and earth.

Xiaoyu and Ao Chun, who were standing beside them, were also shocked by the terrifying murderous aura that seemed to be tangible and was coming from the sky. They were stunned and stood there stiffly, their mouths slightly open, but they couldn't say a word for a long time, their eyes were full of fear and helplessness.

"The Wanku Mountain Demon Clan! Do you know your guilt?!" A majestic voice, as if carrying the power of heaven, rolled in from the huge floating battleship.

The sound seemed to have substance, like a surging wave, spreading wildly in all directions. Wherever the sound waves reached, birds and beasts within hundreds of miles fled in panic, and the mountains and forests were in chaos.

The thousands of demons on the Wanku Mountain were trembling with fear, and many of them even collapsed to the ground, their bodies shaking. Of course, this rebuke instantly ignited the anger of some of the demons, their eyes flushed red, they raised their heads and roared angrily, cursing the Heavenly Court for being ruthless and not leaving them any chance to survive.

At this moment, a ray of light suddenly flashed, like a meteor across the night sky.

The fox girl appeared out of thin air in the sky without any warning, under the flashes of lightning that danced like silver snakes, and in the huge shadow cast by the floating battleship full of heavenly soldiers and generals, which looked like a towering mountain.

The fox girl was wearing an ordinary-style top, her hair flying wildly in the wind, but her posture was straight, standing alone and fearlessly in front of thousands of troops.

"Mom!" When Xiaoyu saw the fox girl appear, the joy and surprise instantly burst out of her throat and she shouted loudly.

Fox Girl immediately turned her head and looked straight in the direction of Xiaoyu. In an instant, a delicate and beautiful smile appeared on her originally cold face. She moved her lips slightly, and although they were separated by a long distance, her silent words seemed to carry magic power and were accurately conveyed to Xiaoyu's heart: "It's okay, don't worry! Mom is here!"

After comforting her daughter, the fox girl quickly turned around, her face instantly returning to the frosty look she had before. Her eyes were like an icy pond, cold and sharp, with a hint of murderous intent in them.

She held her head high and said fearlessly to the majestic commander, Guangmu Tianwang, on the floating battleship, "My Wanku Mountain demon tribe has been self-sufficient through farming and breeding for hundreds of years. We have never encroached on human affairs, let alone preyed on humans to enrich ourselves. May I ask what crime we have committed in the Heavenly Court?"

At this moment, thousands of monsters on Wanku Mountain have climbed out of the mountain and reached the top of the mountain, shouting towards the sky, as if they were all cheering for Fox Sister.

In an instant, the evil spirit turned into a thick black cloud that filled the sky.

Guangmu Tianwang looked solemn as he looked down at the Wanku Mountain below. His voice was low but clear, like the sound of a huge bell: "The Heavenly Court has long issued a clear order that no matter where in the Three Realms, the number of demon strongholds cannot exceed a hundred, and the residence time in a place cannot exceed a hundred years... Besides, your words are only one-sided!"

"But God is merciful. As long as you, the Fox King, can immediately disperse the demons here, this war can end! If you insist on not complying, we, the Heavenly Generals, will make sure that not a single piece of armor remains of you and we will slaughter everyone here!"

The sonorous and powerful sound of killing directly struck Chenxiang's soul.

"It's so unreasonable!" Chenxiang said angrily, "How can he be the master of the three realms! What right do he have to say that others are monsters!" In Chenxiang's eyes, after these few months of getting along, the monsters of Wankushan have become no different from humans except for their human bodies.

"Haha!" Fox Girl laughed, her expression suddenly became even colder, and she said in a cold voice: "You, the Heavenly Court, are already corrupt, yet you come to control others!" At this moment, she thought of the two land and mountain gods who did things for money.

"How dare you! How dare you slander the Heavenly Court!" Guangmu Heavenly King shouted angrily: "Today is the day when the souls of the Wanku Mountain demons will be annihilated!"

"The generals of heaven listen to my orders and set up a net of heaven and earth! No demons will be spared!"

The mighty sound of war rang out. (End of this chapter)
